The shagbark hickory (Carya ovata) is native to Quebec, but is now very rare, its hard, dense wood was used to make furniture and tool handles. It was also used as firewood because it gave a lot of heat for a long time. Hickory is widely used in the smoking industry because of the exceptional taste it gives to foods smoked with its wood. The shagbark hickory (Carya ovata) is a very large tree that can reach more than 25 meters in height and live for 200 years.
The grayish bark frays into long vertical strips. The buds are protected by black scales. The leaves are odd-pinnate and 20 to 30 cm long. They are composed of 5 leaflets. The fruit is an almost round nut 2 to 3.5 cm in diameter. The envelope is green. The shell of the nut is smooth and whitish
The nut from the shagbark hickory is delicious and has something akin to pecans in its flavor. Pecan and shagbark hickory are related, but shagbark hickory is even more hardy
